In Clinical Research

Who is Lean Six Sigma Candidate in Clinical

Research?

High performing companies • Benchmark others

• Empower employees

• Continuously improve

Ultimate Aim = Customer Satisfaction

Who is Customer in Clinical Research? • Patients

• Doctors

• For clinical operations • Biostatistics, Quality Assurance etc. (internal customer)

• Regulatory Agencies such as FDA, MHRA, EMA (customer by proxy)

• Insurance companies (intermediate) Lean Six Sigma and Its Applications in Clinical Research

Case Study

• Objectivity - reduction of a cycle time and improvement

in the process

• Process tested – Paper Case Report Form (CRF)

• Sample – 32 patients and 21 CRF pages for each patient

• Method – Two methods of CRFs data entry were

compared A. In-house/organization’s current method of CRFs data entry

B. Improved/enhanced CRF data entry process developed by

using Lean Six Sigma

• Measures – • First data entry step

• Second data entry step

• Isolated time consuming steps affecting process cycle time

and error rate

• Time with respect to complete entry of CRFs into database

Elliott Liu - Clinical Research during 2006


CONFIDENTIAL

22

Experimental Observations

A.For In-house/organization’s current method of

CRFs data entry: • Labour intensive workflow

• Error prone

• Multiple QC cycles

• Manual query handling

• Weeks in data entry and transfer

B. Improved/enhanced CRF data entry process

developed by using Lean Six Sigma • Dedicated project team involved

• Almost error free within 0.2% acceptance margin of SOP

• Less QC activity with more accuracy

• Less cycle time


CONFIDENTIAL

23

Outcome and Conclusion


CONFIDENTIAL

Reduction of greater than 70%

in cycle time and errors while

CRF Data Entry

Eliminating waste and

duplication + Improve and
